Digitalplayground — - Charlie Forde - Mind Games

"I didn’t expect to be genuinely tense during a DP scene. The mind games are real. Charlie Forde is terrifyingly sexy."

"Charlie Forde delivers a career-best performance. The script, by Sarah K., is tight and twisty. This is adult cinema that respects your brain as much as your other organs." DigitalPlayground - Charlie Forde - Mind Games

In this DigitalPlayground production, Forde elevates the material. She portrays Ivy not as a villain nor a victim, but as a tactician. Watch the way she modulates her voice—soft and inviting in one moment, cold and accusatory the next. Her physical acting is restrained yet deliberate; a hand trailing along a bookshelf, a slow sip of wine, a smile that doesn’t reach her eyes. "I didn’t expect to be genuinely tense during a DP scene

Unable to prove the theft through legal channels, Ivy decides to take matters into her own hands. The plot thickens as she orchestrates an elaborate weekend retreat—isolated, luxurious, and designed specifically to dismantle her target’s composure. The tagline? "He stole her work. She’ll steal his mind." The script, by Sarah K

Industry insiders have noted that Mind Games allows Forde to break free from the "girl-next-door" typecast. Here, she is cerebral, dangerous, and utterly in control. It is a performance that demands attention, even during the non-explicit scenes. DigitalPlayground has long been lauded for its cinematic approach, and Mind Games is no exception. Director Lauren Winters (a pseudonym for an award-winning auteur in the space) utilizes chiaroscuro lighting to mirror the duality of the characters. Shadows cut across faces; reflections in mirrors become metaphors for fractured identities.
